  1. Man seeks compatible door speaker pods for rides in the country
  2. If you want 1.5L get a 5E bottom end, after boring the 4E out to 1.5 I wouldn't drive it n/a, under pressure,...........
  3. n/a manual ones n/a electric ones Glanza electric ones Sell your kidneys for something exotic imported from Japan Personaly i'm looking at the newer Rovers ones (egg shapped) with envy, wish I had the know-how to convert me a pair
  4. Better?! I can do better!!!!! Get me a front cut form a powerful FWD car, a couple of meters of steel tube, an angle grinder and some welding gear Trust me it'll be fine, probably Now gimme your car keys,............ ;)
  5. I think the current ones suit the dark green car better
  6. you accused me of talking about something different every, I felt the need to defend/explain myself! I'll go back to my corner now, just be glad I didn't tell you what colours the tubes should be ;) <__< ;) >_> Blue *Runs*
  7. Another vote for 2nd bumper with a lip/splitter
  8. Honda bah! I say! bah! Same engine, just as I get to know more, I change the variations 5E-FHE, H for higher lift cams, more power than a standard 5E-FE, drop it in, apply turbo BUT The 5E-FHE has a different type of throttle-body (my ref site is down so I can't look-up how exactly), so what? Well with the FHE you'll want the FHE ecu so it's tuned to the H-cams BUT If you want to slap on a bigger throttle, good luck finding a bigger one thats compatiable with the FE electrics(sensors on the throttle body) and the FHE ECU SO,......... You want a 5E-FE Add the FHE cams Add forged rods/piston heads Get the throttle body of a 7A-FE Swap the green sensor over on the body (both are compatible but you want the one off your orginal to be accurate) Get the ACIS mani off the late Sera's, enlarge the intake to match the new throttle body Apply TB to mani(needs fancy mechanics), then apply mani to engine block Get a good exhaust mani, the after-market 4E-FTE ones will do Apply a turbo to engine (choose the right turbo for the job in hand big/small/hybrid/etc also the matching valves/contolers) Get fueling sorted (RRFR, bigger pump if needed) Drop engine in car Alu rad Plug in the wiring loom, adding a piggy-back/replacment ecu to adjust engine to H-cams and turbo FMIC Install a free-flowing exhaust (as your using the 4E mani, it may need a bit of lengthing at the front to marry up correctly) Feel well and truly ace ;) Tune Attend track-day (make rear suspension hard so it doesn't soak up front wheel accleration/power) Win, be recognised as ace (above presumes poster is not talking through his arse, if I'm wrong corrcet me!) Or I could just post, Turbo a 5E-FE LOLERCAKES! ;) depends how much rambling you want to put up with from me
  9. Glad to hear, in it for the music not the silly haircut! Seem to remember seeing on the net somewhere a yaris with a 4E-FTE lump in, tech can't be that bad! if you have silly money drop in a VVT lump, any roads it your ride and choice
  10. Happy b'day oldie!
  11. Very TEtChy owner Sure you got impresive bhp figures, but there at the top end revs, what you got low and mid thou, and wheres your torque eh? Was walking through town the other day for some reason, over heard some 15yr old (dyed black hair, pirceings, the usual 'designer' alt gear) says My Chemical Romance was metal Luckly for him I was far to polite to tell him how wrong his was. The whole alt scene has been hijacked and marketed, the air-head pop fans, are now air-head emo fans, who think there 'deep' and hard metal fans, errgh To avoid offending you joz I'll just had thats modern emo stuff pop-rock if you will Annnnnyyyway back on topic Stick with starlet, if you can stop spending money on it for more than 2mins maybe you could drop and 5E-Fe in it, and eventually turbo that, if the handling and looks are fine, why dump then to simply find more power, bigger engines qre only found in bigger heavier cars so keep the starlet platform, just give it a bigger engine Of course if want to go crazy, import an ep95 (4wd if I rmember correctly and diesel) and have even more fun
  12. Took me three attempts! To mirror joz, with a few strut bars the na handling improves, coilovers, and you got a go-kart, add the mani and apexi filter, the enigine responds quicker, new exhaust (or just get a welder to remove the center box) and that should help a bit too Being a 17yr old new driver, your probably gonna be bleed dry on insurance even the humble 1.3 might cost a bomb, add a turbo, I don't wanna think about When your older with a few years NCD, get a Glanza or drop a 5E-FE in (1.5L), thats my plan Welcome by the way!
  13. MinusZero posted a pic showing it moved over to the left in his bay, had it right up against the rad overflow bottle However I believe he left the site in disgrace, didn't have a starlet for starters so don't know whose bay he posted up, or where he got the pic from
  14. @scutch0 Thanks man
  15. Pretty much, if it was completly different, then yes it'd wouldn't be so bad!
  16. How so?
  17. I think people take a hacksaw to there existing frames
  18. If the holes in the back bumper were filled over, and the bottom was level, actually that would make it a different bumper altogether then wouldn't it Big mesh scoops don't work on small cars
  19. I'll let Jay have that one then She won't change gear until 4k revs, and take corners in anything less than 3rd gear, but thats because "it likes to go fast, and go VROOOM!!" Help On the positive side I might get away with buying bits for the car a bit more now, if I buy in duplicate,......
  20. Hi, wings girlfriend here. trying to keep him from getting too excited about having a new car to mod! lol Really looking forward to it, starlets drive like a dream. Been taking wings's car out and about scaring him half to death by taking corners too fast, but hey if youve got power steering why not use it
  21. I'm more of a Starlet owner than you! As I do now actually own two ep91 n/a's now You all know I have this But this morning I put a deposit down on this sportif for the girlfriend, going to collect it next weekend or so, need to sort some insurance (Joz my insurance will now be bigger than yours,.....) However, despite having spent all my money the modding goes on! Piccy's dont seem to be loading at the mo, link to the dealers spec here
  22. Fit a bigger one, get more air throu, need a compatible one thou
  23. Yeah now you mention it, I have to set windows sound controls and my creative audioHQ settings every time I switch from headphones to 5.1 nad back again!
  24. Update all your drivers dude Graphics card Sound card Motherboard It'll be software, it's always software If your in doubt about what make/model your pc's hardware is let me know. I'm sure I can point you in the right direction of stuff find it out for you, so I can point in the right direction for the drivers
